چکیده

analysis, both in the tradition of discrete mathematics and in the tradition of statistical inference, have for a long time focused mainly on single (i.e., cross-sectional) methods of analysis. Important early longitudinal network studies were those by Nordlie (1958) and Newcomb (1961) who studied friendships in a college fraternity based on the empirical data collected; Coleman's (1961) Adolescent Society study with friendship data in 10 schools and 9,702 individuals; Kapferer's (1972) study of observed interactions in a tailor shop in Zambia (then Northern Rhodesia) over a period of ten months, in a period of industrial conflict; Sampson's (1969) Ph.D. dissertation on the developments of the relations in a group of 18 monks in a monastery; and the study by Hallinan with seven

Intelligent identification of vehicle’s dynamics based on local model network

This paper proposes an intelligent approach for dynamic identification of the vehicles. The proposed approach is based on the data-driven identification and uses a high-performance local model network (LMN) for estimation of the vehicle’s longitudinal velocity, lateral acceleration and yaw rate. The proposed LMN requires no pre-defined standard vehicle model and uses measurement data to identif...
